baba11: pls explain, what I know is that when u touch their new born babies, the mother will not go near it again

baba11: We reared it when I was still much younger(abt 20yrs ago) because of this I want to contribute to this tread In my own little way:to rear rabbit,you need male and female type and they are a very delicate animal,their cage should be devoid of any ant which can sting them,their surrounding should be very clean to prevent diseases.They used to eat wooden casing when they are hungry,when they're mating,they do so with much agility,they are much more resistant to disease s if u do the aforesaid,they have a lot of hair covering their body,when they are about to give birth,they pull off most of their hair to insulate the babies...
They eat milk-like grass and one particular grass with flower ontop!!!!!

dyoungforester: Sorry dgr.. I'm unable to see d prototype pics of your cage. I'm also good @ building cage for rabbit. Quess what one of my rabbit parturated to 5kits in her first birth... And u can hand pick your newbabes rabbits with your bear hands without d mother harming the babes by making necessary steps do u know that.

FarmTech:
..
That is only likely to happen if u touch a dog, cat etc b4 touching the baby. It is advisable to rub ur hand on the mother 1st so that the babies will smell like the mother.

baba11: I think for any rabbit farmer to have a success ful sale,he has to devise various ways to do this,if you don't mind,I'll like to give u step by step in which we can do these depending on location.Should I continue!??

RealChris:

Yes, continue from the starting point.... Pls include picx for more n better understanding... Thanks

baba11: No pix ooo,I'm yet to begin rearing it for market,it's only my past knowledge I'm going to use...I'm open to correction from u my Ogas in the house...No one is an island!!!!

samshoz: Continue my bro, do ur best, others too can share their own knowledge.

samshoz: My rabbit urine is white, Why is that?

ruxton06:
Too much calcium intake.

samshoz: I read so too online, though I give some little multivitamin but I stopped it.

ruxton06:
Solution is to reduce calcium source ( limestone or oyster shell) in the feed or change to growers' mash incase you're giving them layers' mash.

samshoz: Thanks bro. Is it okay to leave its light on at night?

samshoz: Thanks bro. Is it okay to leave its light on at night?

FarmTech:
..
14hr light is good for both males and females.

ruxton06:
Only required if kept in a room or enclosed cage. If in the open, normal daylight should be ok.

dyoungforester: @ Wizard, nice job as a rabbit lover, but for the species of rabbit since it plain white it is new Zealand white with pink eyes but if all plain with little black batches beneath the back and ear and likewise the eyes will be black it is beveren. So you can give them tridax leave, pawpaw leave, vegetables, elephant grass, or concentrate pelletized feeds and u can feed them twice in a day with enough water . since you said you bought it from aboki it may be bush rabbit ( hare). But all the same we are good to go. Sorry for replying you late. DYoung Forester.
